spirit, soul, estrogen, and carbon.


There are all these ideas spinning in my head recently,
and I've been left alone with these thoughts to process.


I don't have all the answers, but I do have a lot of unanswered questions.
Is it wrong that that's strangely comforting?
It pushes buttons, unzips a few body bags, unlocks a few closets.

am I ready? for what?
unsettling, yet satisfying.
like a burning candle. peaceful, yet the flame is never perfectly still...
but it is steady, and it burns a brilliant light whether the flame is small or large.




I've been dreaming lately. nights and in afternoon naps, also.
I don't understand most of them,

but all of them are outright fascinating.

About Me

My photo
I am a tug of war between head and heart, a mess of body and soul. My greatest fear is my only hope, for it is not a man with beginning or end, but something much greater and wilder than anything of flesh and bone. I am a woman of simple words, wild love, and no apologies for either. © Ashley Burrough 2013. All Rights Reserved.
